1065 Swift Snowy Is A Beauty? 1
Qi Feng did not look very comfortable. He lowered his head and looked at his legs as the sharpness in his eyes disappeared. Then, he clenched his fists and closed his eyes as he took a deep breath. Moments later, he returned to being calm.
“First Master, we can’t give up on any tiny amount of hope. The doctors we saw abroad never said that it was impossible for you to stand again, and since you’ve been receiving ma.s.sages every day, your legs have shown no sign of dystrophia. This means that your condition is still positive. Please give it a try,” Morrison tried to encourage when he noticed Qi Feng’s hesitance.
“Make the arrangements,” Qi Feng replied after some time. Although his tone was cold, he did not sound very motivated.
Morrison nodded with a grin. “Alright! I’ll make the arrangements right away!” He then quickly contacted Professor Terl as soon as the car started moving.
The sky had already turned dark when Xi Xiaye returned to Maple Residence, and it was notably chilly outside at the moment.
She noticed that the kitchen lights were switched on when she entered the house, so she left her stuff on the table and then entered. She could smell the appetizing aroma as soon as she entered the kitchen. The man was busy cooking right in front of the stove, and Xi Xiaye suddenly felt famished.
“You’re late.” He quickly noticed someone’s presence behind him. Without turning around, he knew who was there.
Xi Xiaye moved closer and looked at him cooking from the side. “It’s been a long time since I went back. A lot of work has piled up, but I’m already planning to pa.s.s it down since I’ve been too busy to take care of it anyway.”
He turned around and looked at her. Then, he frowned when he noticed she was soaked. “Isn’t there an umbrella inside the car? Where are the bodyguards? How come you got so wet?”
She wiped off some of the rainwater as she said, “It’s fine. It’s just a little drizzle. Are you almost done? I’m famished…”
He chuckled and put a piece of meat inside her mouth. He then gazed at her gently. “Give this a try. You said this was delicious the last time we went to that restaurant, didn’t you? I’ll show you just how amazing I am today.”
She rolled her eyes at him before accepting his treat gracefully. Right away, her eyes brightened up and she quickly nodded as she replied with garbled words, “This is good! It’s close to that taste! How did you do that? How did you cook it the same way even without the recipe?”
“Just be mindful and observe it when you eat. You’ll be able to figure out what’s in it. Then, you’ll get the same taste after some experimentation.” He shot her a proud glance.
“Mr. Mu, I suddenly realize that the reason I was so easily attracted to you wasn’t just about your spectacular appearance…” She slowly swallowed the food in relish and her eyes were shining like clear crystals as she grinned.
Calmly, Mu Yuchen shifted his gaze away and said in a firm tone, “I’d be really relieved if you’d be satisfied with just my appearance!”
“You can definitely make a living with this pretty face, Mr. Mu.” She chuckled as she lifted his chin with one finger to observe his face carefully.
“And become your little house husband at home?” He rolled his eyes at her. “Go and prepare the cutleries!”
Xi Xiaye laughed and left a tiny peck on his cheek. She quickly backed off and went to set up the table.
The exquisite dinner was soon served though the house was quiet as there were only the two of them. It felt like they returned to how it was when they just got married. Maple Residence was quiet with just the two of them around. The only change was that Xi Xiaye always missed her son, as well as Shen Yue and Mu Zirui.
Following dinner, she quickly left the table and went upstairs to give Shen Yue and Mu Zirui a call since they were still in France. Being an understanding husband, Mu Yuchen cleaned up after dinner. After a shower, he went to the study room.
It was already 10 p.m. when Xi Xiaye was done with a call and had taken a shower. Suddenly, she remembered what happened outside the supermarket, so she quickly grabbed the two invitation cards and went into the study room.
Mu Yuchen was focused on reading inside the study room, but he raised his eyebrows when he noticed the little woman getting closer with a frown on her face. “What’s wrong?”
Xi Xiaye handed him the invitation cards. “Take a look at these for yourself. I b.u.mped into Qi Feng when I was on the way back. He gave these to me. Should we attend his wedding with Gu Lingsha next weekend?”
A light flickered in Mu Yuchen’s eyes as he stopped reading. He glanced at the big, red invitation cards in Xi Xiaye’s hand.
She took a deep breath and put them onto the table. “Their wedding seems pretty grand. I suppose they want to put on a huge act for the media too. Besides, it feels like Qi Qiming is trying to help Qi Feng gain popularity. The news of their wedding must be getting a lot of attention.”
Mu Yuchen did not reply as he took the invitations and glanced through them with a cold smile. “Of course, we’ll respond to his warm invitation. In fact, I’ll prepare a super big wedding gift for them.”
“Be careful. I can feel that Qi Feng is hiding something. It’s better to be safe than sorry,” she reminded.
Mu Yuchen left the invitations on the table and smiled. “Avoid it if you can’t win. You’re getting smarter.”
Xi Xiaye started giggling.
